Yeah, I played the first one. I was a fan.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Has anyone played Dead Space?  Looking for something space horror/actiony.

Played a little of it.  Didn't care for it.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Fired up Grimrock today.  Bought last summer, hadn't played it.  Lots of fun.

Definitely fun, but hard.  I don't have the time or attention span for games that hard anymore.  I ended up reading walk-throughs on a bunch of stuff, though I never finished it.  :blush:

Enjoying FIFA 13 with Bayern Munich. Ribery's hand flapping is hilarious.

Was going to do Millwall, but there is no riot button.

I finished two levels and looked through the walkthrough.  I missed a lot, especially considering my missile specialist lacked a bow or sling by third level of the dungeon! :lol:

That sounds like whatI did. :D

The very first room has a secret.  You have to go the back wall, scan around for a tiny little stone and press it to open a secret door.  Why didn't I think of that?  Actually after I read about it, I still couldn't find it.  I had to look on youtube to find a video of someone else finding it.  This is not a game that eases you into it.

Even after knowing that secret door was there it took me like 20 minutes to find it.

Assasin's Creed III multiplayer with my two nephews online. The little shits got hyper when I stalked them and kept stabbing them.

Worth the 40 bucks just to do that.

Was having video problems with FTL; got those resolved, so I'm playing that now too. I'm in love. :wub:

If you let someone handcuff you, and put a rope around your neck, don't act all surprised if they hang you!

Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely - lay your life before him.

I'm going to crank up Civ5, of which I've only played a few hours, and possibly have my first game of the modded Civ4 Colonisation that someone on here put me onto.  :cool:

Now I'm starting to get in the swing of things.  I started over and each time I finish a level I look through the walkthrough to see if I missed something.  Last level I missed nothing!  Did read up on the game, there only four main people who made the game.  In addition there was another guy who wrote the main theme, and someone to port it over to Linux and some beta testers.  That's fairly impressive.  Even more so is the fact the game sold 600,000 copies.
